Adelaide, Boxing Day 2004: 'Just passing through' on a surprise visit to Perth didn't quite work.

When the car was on the tow-truck, I noticed the front left tyre was half flat.  This probably explains why after bumping the island with the front right tyre the car spun around, resulting in the above.  Fortunately no other cars were involved and nobody was injured.  Unfortunately, my car was a write-off.

This was as a learner -- I got my license on the next working day.
